Newcastle United are reportedly lining up a summer move for attacker Kenedy – and the club’s supporters on Twitter have massively approved of the idea.
The Daily Mirror reports that the Magpies want to sign the 22-year-old in the next transfer window following on from his impressive loan stint at St James’ Park.
It is understood that Rafael Benitez’s side may have to fork out up to £15million to land the Brazilian on a permanent basis from parent club Chelsea.
Kenedy’s arrival at St James’ Park has no doubt given the team a lift and they are now five points above the bottom three of the Premier League.
The left-winger has quickly become an ever-present under Benitez and is beginning to find his full fitness after being on the fringes at Chelsea in the first-half.
He starred with a brace at the weekend in the 3-0 win over Southampton, with his opening goal a fantastic strike as he brought the ball down on his chest before finishing from close-range.
Newcastle fans on social media have given the green light to make a summer move and feel that the quoted £15million transfer fee is extremely good value for money.

Buy him now. That’s a snip. He’s a quality player who Rafa has absolutely played to his strengths. Full credit to Rafa. Kenedy obviously loves it here also. Match made in heaven really.

We paid £12m for Murphy so Kenedy is worth that. https://t.co/0HCXsdSUxG
